RE: ☹ (ಥ_ಥ) STEEMIT IS BROKEN - AS LONG AS THIS IS ALLOWED TO CONTINUE! (ಥ_ಥ) ☹

in #steemit7 years ago

I thought about that, which is why I suggested Countering the Flags with Upvotes. It can't be any worse than what it is right now where a few people with High SP can destroy your income, reputation and hide all your content and leave you with no recourse whatsoever.

Sort:  

You are not going to get 500+ 100% upvotes..unless a friendly bot owner counters. Basically this idea will make bot masters your new whales.

Well you have any better suggestions? Cause shit definitely needs to get changed somehow! I have a much higher reputation than the person who flagged me but because he has more SP he was able to destroy me for no reason.

I have no suggestions because I actually like the system the way it is. I did have in idea for doing reputation differently, but that's another matter. It is important that the system respects SteemPower, otherwise, why should I power up?

Specifically with Bayrene, well yea, he is a bit of a jerk, you have my sympathies there. He can't hurt your reputation at least, yours is much higher. Just lay low for a while and he'll probably leave you alone.

I don't know how much of my posts you have read, or of this one....but Steemit is my only source of income at the moment due to health issues there isn't much I can do for work.....so "laying low" is kind of not an option when people can just flag me and take all my income for no reason.

I get that SteemPower is important to most people as a reason to leave the flagging system the way it is and if it was USED PROPERLY I would be okay with that.....but it isn't.....it is routinely abused and has been since it was implemented 13 months ago.

The Steem system does not owe you an income, it doesn't owe me an income either. No one is entitled to receive even a single penny from the reward pool. It is what it is.

I know you dislike Bayrene, but he has invested a shitload of money into Steemit. Where do you think the money comes from? The reason why Steemit can spit out tens and twenties to posters is because people like Bayrene (and myself) have poured tons of money into this system, so that people like you can extract it (your welcome).

Also, I might add, that accounts like me can't "flag as much as we want". Flagging is actually damn expensive, it cuts into my business, and all those flags Bayrene poured on you cost him a lot too. Flagging is not easy or free and there are limiting factors.

I don't personally dislike bayrene, I am just confused as to why bayrene is flagging me. I have invested a lot of time (and some money) into Steemit myself, been here longer than most others on Steemit. I help as many people as I can on steemit so not sure why I got flagged so hard for no apparent reason. As far as "steemit owing me" I don't agree with that assessment. By the logic above unless you INPUT MONEY into Steemit you are not entitled to GET ANYTHING OUT of steemit......wouldn't that make it a Ponzi Scheme?

Read what I said again. I said no one is entitled to receive money from the reward pool. You are the one who added "unless you INPUT MONEY into Steemit". If you are going to put words into my mouth, then there is not much point in having a conversation.

Sorry I misunderstood what you where saying.
